Asked by Bri

Examine the scenario.
A child starts at a position of 2 m east of his house. He moves 1 m south, 5 m west, and then 1 m north.
What is his displacement for this trip?

5 m west


1 m north


3 m west


7 m
A?
Answered by Damon
1 S + 1 N = 0
5 W = 5 W
We are interested in his motion vector, not where he started
so in the end his displacement vector was 5 W
